We left off with the topics of:
Fleeing a mob via a motor vehicle
Surviving a gang attack alone and/or while protecting loved ones

These two parts of the motorcycle attack are the most difficult.

Fleeing a mob via a vehicle should be easy.

Whether your attackers are on foot or on motorcycles, the combat formula applies. The rule of combat is “all other things being equal, the bigger stronger person wins.” So it should be easy, the car wins. You can flee by simply driving away or if your attackers are stupid enough to get in your way, use the mass of your vehicle and run them over. Unfortunately, this is why urban survival is different then surviving in the wild. In the wild you have to worry about these types of animals:

In the urban environment you have to worry about these:

The victim of the motorcycle attack in NY fled after he was attacked and as per news reports ran over one of the motorcyclists. Here, the attorney for that motorcyclist run over by the victim comforts the wife of the motorcyclist while announcing a multimillion dollar lawsuit filed against the victim driver.

So, it’s not that simple if you consider that if you flee one attack you may have to face another. You may want to consider the phrase “better to be judged by 12 then carried by 6.”

Surviving a gang attack alone and/or while protecting loved ones:

To survive a gang attack alone and/or while protecting loved ones, you have to consider the psychology of combat, your physical abilities, your fighting capabilities and the environment. At Zenshin LLC, we teach that there are typical psychological responses both the aggressor and the potential victim display. If you can interrupt that learned response you have a great chance of disrupting the attack long enough to escape. Of course, being physically fit is important, more important is knowing what your physical limitations and strengths are so that you can increase the odds that you will make good combat choices. Above, I stated the rule of combat is “all other things being equal, the bigger stronger person wins.” There is a second part of the rule that says, “although it is possible to change that outcome with skill and environmental factors.” Train everyday and when you are not in combat, practice how your environment may help you.

The planning you do now may help fend off all types of animals that may want to do you harm.
